1 uch Ado Blockbusters Developed by iz Haslam and Zoe Taylor at the Rochdale Shakespeare workshop in December The webaddress for this activity is: ast updated 2nd February 2007 OABORATIVE EARNING PROJET Project Director: Stuart Scott Supporting a cooperative network of teaching professionals throughout the European Union to develop and disseminate accessible teaching materials in all subject areas and for all ages. 17, Barford Street, Islington, ondon N1 0QB UK Phone: 0044 (0) ebsite: BRIEF SUARY OF BASI PRINIPES BEHIND OUR TEAHING ATIVITIES: The project is a teacher network, and a non-profit making educational trust. Our main aim is to develop and disseminate classroom tested examples of effective group strategies across all phases and subjects. e hope they will inspire you to develop and use similar strategies in other topics and curriculum areas. e run teacher workshops, swapshops and conferences throughout the European Union. The project publishes a catalogue of activities plus lists in selected subject areas, and a newsletter available on the internet: PAPERIPʼ. *These activities were influenced by current thinking about the role of language in learning. They are designed to help children learn through talk and active learning in small groups. They work best in mixed classes where children in need of language or learning support are integrated. They are well suited for the development of speaking and listening. They provide teachers opportunities for assessment of speaking and listening and other formative assessment. *They support differentiation by placing a high value on what children can offer to each other on a particular topic, and also give children the chance to respect each otherʼs views and formulate shared opinions which they can disseminate to peers. By helping them to take ideas and abstract concepts, discuss, paraphrase and move them about physically, they help to develop thinking skills. *They give children the opportunity to participate in their own words and language in their own time without pressure. any activities can be tried out in mother tongue and afterwards in English. A growing number of activities are available in more than one language, not translated, but mixed, so that you may need more than one language to complete the activity. *They encourage study skills in context, and should therefore be used with a range of appropriate information books which are preferably within reach in the classroom. *They are generally adaptable over a wide age range because children can bring their own knowledge to an activity and refer to books at an appropriate level. The activities work like catalysts. *All project activities were planned and developed by teachers working together, and the main reason they are disseminated is to encourage teachers to work effectively with each other inside and outside the classroom. They have made it possible for mainstream and language and learning support teachers to share an equal role in curriculum delivery. They should be adapted to local conditions. In order to help us keep pace with curriculum changes, please send any new or revised activities back to the project, so that we can add them to our lists of materials.
2 uch Ado Blockbusters Teachers' Notes This is an introduction to some of the ideas which are important to the play. It is designed so that it can be played when the pupils know little or nothing about the play, but it could be used at any time. It can be played in different ways, but here is the way iz and Zoe chose to do it: Three people play together, one of them is the asks the questions. Players can take turns for this role There are four kinds of questions on shown on the shapes by different capital letters : *About women s status () * About Shakespeare s language () About comedy () * About masks. () iz and Zoe colour coloured the shapes, but we have gone for a black and white version to make it easier for you to produce multiple copies. All the information needed to answer the questions is provided here. Either use the large information sheets and stick these onto a game board with the blockbuster shapes in the middle or enlarge the small version to A3 or just use the answer sheets if you want to make it more difficult. This will need to be laminated. The questions should be cut out and put in 4 piles. You will need counters in four different colours. Alternatively, and this works better in the longer game, players can mark the shapes with initials in dry wiper pens. In this case of course you will need to laminate the board which isn't a bad idea anyway since A3 card is hard to come by. There are answer sheets for the questions which can be left at the front in case anyone gets stuck.
3 How to Play uch Ado Blockbusters This game is for three players and one extra person to ask the questions. You are going to cross the board from left to right. Take it in turns to choose a letter from the first row. The person who asks picks a question from the pile that matches the letter. If you answer the question correctly, you can put your coloured counter on the hexagon. hoose any hexagon which touches this one when it is your turn again. If you cannot find the answer, try a different letter on the first row when it is your next turn. For a short game, the winner can be the first person to cross the board. A ORE DIFFIUT GAE The longer game is better. For this one, the players double back and keep crossing the board until they have covered all the shapes. The first two to manage this are joint winners.

5 omen anguage In Elizabethan times women were seen legally as property. Fathers owned daughters until they married. Fathers gave or received money (dowry) for their daughters, so it was important that they married as rich a husband as possible. A woman had to keep her good reputation and virginity. It was important that she did not have sex before marriage. If she did she would risk being dishonoured, unable to marry and shunned by her family. As a result, people often married very young and very quickly. They did not always marry for love. They sometimes married a person that their family chose for them. It would be almost unheard of for rich to marry poor. In this play, Hero should marry laudio, but Don John's secret plan stops this from happening. laudio believes that Hero has had sex and he doesn't want to marry her any more. In Shakespeare's time it was the fashion to talk very cleverly and make clever jokes. This was called wit. Some characters in the plays show how clever they are by teasing each other. The audience thought this was funny. Beatrice and Benedick have a love hate relationship. They show this by teasing each other but sometimes they hurt each other too much. They use their wit to hide their true feelings and protect their pride. The audience would have found the misunderstandings in the play very funny. For example Benedick overhears some people saying that Beatrice is in love with him. He believes this and decides to fall in love with her. Beatrice is an excellent example of Shakespeare using clever language to entertain the audience For example, she make fun of the messenger because he is very serious. She asks how many people Benedick has killed at war because she has promised to eat all he has killed. Shakespeare wrote his plays four hundred years ago when the English language was different. For example, 'an' meant 'if', 'meet' meant 'right' and 'hath' meant 'has'. The theatre would not have had modern lighting or special effects so Shakespeare had to set his seen with his words. e have special effects and we have film, so we can look at scenery,costumes and lighting as well as listen to the actors. In Shakespeare's time the special effects were the words the actors spoke. Shakespeare uses language full of images. These are word pictures, e.g. ' I had rather hear a dog bark at at crow than a man swear he loves me.' any of these are metaphors.eg. 'Is it possible Disdain should die while she hath such meet food to feed it, as Signor Benedick. In this example, Beatrice pretends that Benedick is good food for disliking men. There are also similes, e.g. 'O ord, he will hang upon him like a disease.' In this example, Beatrice says people can catch Benedick like they catch a disease. Oxymorons are words which cannot go together, e.g. 'a hot January'. There are many examples of double meanings as well. Beatrice and Benedick spend much of the day quarrelling and their merry war uses many jokes.these jokes would keep the audience entertained. For example Benedick teases Beotrice with the line 'I would that my horse had the speed of your tangue.'

For example Benedick teases Beotrice with the line 'I would that my horse had the speed of your tangue.' asks This happened at parties. People covered their faces with masks. en chose women to dance with. asks allowed people to keep their identities secret. This meant people could make mistakes or behave badly. They could hide what they had done. They could pretend to be someone else. Don Pedro pretended to be laudio. Beatrice pretended not to recognise Benedick. In this play people are confused just like a masked ball confuses people. There are secret plans. Don Pedro had a secret plan to make Beatrice and Benedick fall in love. Don John had a secret plan to make laudio hate Hero. haracters make mistakes. They believe lies. haracters listen to each other in secret, and they are tricked by what they hear. Beatrice heard Hero and Ursula telling lies about Benedick, and she believed them.
